BEAUTY HAUL: SENSIBLE MAKEUP FINDS

I bought these things for under $20. These are all low-end stuff but its worth your while.

A lot of people don't really like E.L.F. that much, but I have chosen a selection of things that are pretty worth your while.

All it takes is just a keen eye. This Day 2 Nite Brightening Eye Color is the perfect combination of colors, it reminds me of Smashbox Quad. This is one quad that you should totally get for an everyday look, Day time or Night time, its fantastic.

Another thing, its very very pigmented. The only thing you will need, is a good primer for it to make it last long and a god brush, but color wise, this is a fantastic combo. I have always admired elf's brightening eye colors, they give the best combinations, If your not satisfied with E.L.F. you can always just mimic their color combos with eyeshadows that you have, because I've collected these things, and it helped me a lot in devising my own color combo. ELF is a great starting point for newbies.

The one constant thing I like bout ALMAY Pure Blends is that...its always ALL NATURAL.

Its paraben free, talc free and hypoallergenic. I chose this color because Its just a nice matte chocolate brown color, very natural and its not overwhelming. Another nice pick for an everyday look, this is Cocoa 205. It stays really well too.

Some people again would think, why ALMAY? well, you really gotta try one to experience its' lightness.

Another yet amazing ELF product, a mineral eyeshadow called "Celebrity", this is the prettiest, most pigmented, and gold subtle gold eyeshadow I have seen, I was shocked by it, because as cheap as it is, its just totally awesome. I've never tried a mineral eyeshadow from ELF before and I chose this color because its the prettiest and I could totally do lots of great looks with it. I love it. It has that "WOW!" factor.

This stuff is AMAZING, I swatched it on my hands and rubbed it for like the nth time, and it wont come off, and yes, its very true to its word "Champagne" its sort of like a cream eyeshadow rather than a primer, It reminds me of "Kitten" from Stila. I like it because its very comfortable to wear on your skin, its not really heavy.

You guys have to try this one out.

So, okay, my expectations to try this concealer was pretty average. and yes, my intuition is right again. Its just a regular drug store concealer. Its actually pretty good in hiding blemishes and unwanted dark spots but the staying power I could say is probably between 4-5 hours. The brush that comes with this is actually...worthless. I had to use my own concealer brush in applying this. But anyways, I think If you don't want to splurge that much and just want somethings that works, this is a great pick.

I really wanted to push the limit on concealers, so I also got ELF's Corrective Concealer as well, this works just as fine as my other corrective concealers. And again, this stuff 'works' and when I say 'works' its like, its on the average. So, again the yellow one is to conceal dark circles or purple or blue bruises, the green is for red spots, the pinks acts as a brightener for the inner and outer corner of the eyes, and the blue one is used to erase any orange discolorations onto your skin.

Okay, so I'm just curious, they say that Jordache are knockoffs, but it claims in the packaging that It is not connected in anyway with Glow a registered trademark of Jennifer Lopez and does not use the same fragrace.

They only produce a fragrance that smells closer to the original. This is my first Jordache purchase, and It smelled so amazing. Made in the U.S. by Jean Philippe Fragraces. At least they don't count as COUNTERFEITS! and you know what..I'm using this as my LINEN SPRAY! IT SMELLS SO AMAZING!

Anyway, If you just want to save a buck or two, try these things. They are amazing.

Hope to get some more info from you guys!
